SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This meeting is being held under the
provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) of 1972 (5
United States Code (U.S.C.), appendix, as amended), the Government in
the Sunshine Act of 1976 (5 U.S.C. 552b, as amended), and the General

0900 Call to Order (Open to Public)

Current details on the board of visitors may be found at <a href="https://www.usna.edu/PAO/Superintendent/bov.php">https://www.usna.edu/PAO/Superintendent/bov.php</a>.
The closed meeting from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. ET on May 05,
2025, will consist of discussions of new and pending administrative or
minor disciplinary infractions and non-judicial punishments involving
midshipmen attending the Naval Academy to include but not limited to,
individual honor or conduct violations within the Brigade, the
disclosure of which would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of
personal privacy. For this reason, a portion of this meeting will be
closed to the public, as the discussion of such information cannot be
adequately segregated from other topics, which precludes opening the
closed meeting to the public. The Principal Deputy General Counsel has
determined in writing that the meeting shall be partially closed to the
public because the discussions during the closed meeting from 11 a.m.
to noon (12 p.m.) will be concerned with matters protected under
sections 552b(c) (5), (6), and (7) of title 5, U.S.C.
Due to circumstances beyond the control of the Designated Federal
Officer and the Department of Defense, the United States Naval Academy
Board of Visitors was unable to provide public notification required by
41 CFR 102-3.150(a) concerning its May 5, 2025 meeting. Accordingly,
the Advisory Committee Management Officer for the Department of
Defense, pursuant to 41 CFR 102-3.150(b), waives the 15-calendar day
notification requirement.
Meeting Accessibility: Pursuant to FACA and 41 CFR 102-3.140, this
[[Page 17054]]
meeting is open to the public. Any public attendance at the meeting
will be governed by prevailing health directives at the United States
Naval Academy. Please contact the Executive Secretary five business
days prior the meeting to coordinate access to the meeting.
Written Statements: Per Section 10(a)(3) of the FACA and 41 CFR
102-3.105(j) and 102-3.140, interested persons may submit a written
statement for consideration at any time, but should be received by the
Designated Federal Officer at least five business days prior to the
meeting date so that the comments may be made available to the Board
for their consideration prior to the meeting. Written statements should
be submitted via mail to 121 Blake Rd., Annapolis, MD 21402. Please
note that since the Board operates under the provisions of the FACA, as
amended, all submitted comments and public presentations may be treated
as public documents and may be made available for public inspection,
including, but not limited to, being posted on the board website.
Authority: 5 U.S.C. 552b.
Dated: April 17, 2025.
R.A. Kennedy,
Lieutenant Commander, Judge Advocate General's Corps, U.S. Navy,
Federal Register Liaison Officer.
